A predictive Min-H method to improve convergence to optimal solutions
J. A. GIBSON, J. F. Lowinger · International Journal of Control · 1974
The gradient method of solving optimization problems via the Maximum Principle is shown to have severe solution convergence limitations. A predictive algorithm based on the Min-H approach is devised, and has greatly improved performance characteristics. Experimental results from hybrid computer studies of an illustrative example demonstrate fully the performance of this improved technique.
